I couldn't agree more, I am from holland and I do my hosting with UnitedHosting, (Because dutch hosting is not so good)

Speaking of forums. What forum software do you use Matt? Did you write this? I use invision but I am looking for alternatives just out of curiosity.

UH-Matt · 30th December 2002, 01:36 AM

look at the bottom of the page

"Forum Powered By YaBB SE 1.4.1 [Modified by UH-Matt] "

It is YaBB SE...

Which is basically YaBB but a PHP version with a lot of customization by me

more info on YaBB SE @ http://www.yabbse.org/

OH DADGUMIT! I feel a bit foolish now that I remember all of those threads about Yabb this and Yabb that. What are the advantages of Yabb over let's say, invision? example: My forum

Invision is fully customizable with a control panel that allows me to modify everything. I am looking for the BEST board software though so that's why I am asking opinions.

I love your board.

UH-Matt · 30th December 2002, 01:54 AM

I chose Yabb SE because of the following reasons:

1. We wanted a SIMPLE board, this site is not built around the forum so it doesnt need a lot of forum features.

2. YaBB works quickly

3. Its written in PHP woohoo

4. It is fairly easy to hack around and do custom mods.

BUT,
If your after a forum with LOTS of features i would stick with invision or go for phpBB or VBulletin.

VB is probably the best forum there is - but its not free.

DADGUMNIT! Do you guys ever sleep?

WOW! It's like you guys are on here all of the time! I am a mainframe programmer, by trade, and I get burnt out on occasion. >

Don't you ever get burnt out?

I just received an email about my purchase of a reseller account like 10 minutes after sending it! You people are awesome!

SNaK3 · 30th December 2002, 05:01 PM

Is everyone practically on reseller here? or am i the only one whos on the basic web hosting package?

BarrettAnderson · 30th December 2002, 09:34 PM

i'm not a reseller.... i think the resellers are just hardcore web people so they associate with their host a lot more. now me on the other hand.. i just have a lot of problems...

UH-Matt · 30th December 2002, 10:20 PM

problems ?

BarrettAnderson · 30th December 2002, 10:55 PM

yeah.. problems... well, that's how i got started in these forums... not anymore i guess... i just got in the habbit of checking these
